Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the profile is part of a prefabricated railing system or includes fittings for permanent installation
Heading 39.25 covers builders' ware of plastics, including fencing and similar barriers, which may apply if the profile is more than a simple shape.
If the profile is made of a plastic other than polymers of vinyl chloride
This tariff item covers profile shapes of other plastics, such as polyethylene or polypropylene.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the profile is not further worked beyond surface finishing (e.g
• no machining or assembly) to stay in this tariff item
• Declare the polymer composition (PVC content over 95%) accurately on customs documents
• Verify if the profile meets Canadian building code standards, as CBSA may request technical specifications
